FinMath UChicago vs. CompFin UCL vs. Stats Imperial?

I have offers to do masters degrees at 

- UChicago, Financial Mathematics

- UCL, Computational Finance

- Imperial, Statistics (Finance)

- Georgia Tech, Computational Finance

Does anyone have any thoughts or comparisons of the different degrees? I have experience at 2 trading companies (semi-prop shop/asset manager) as a trader/quant. I have no interest is IB, want to work at either a prop shop or HF

My current ranking is Chicago > Imperial > UCL > GTech. Thoughts?
